Auggie wishes he had a normal life. if I could change anything about my appearance I would most probably change all my looks.

I think it means your like everyone else.  that he is different to everyone else.

they look away and some even run.

that is he goes to school just to be bullied basically.

yes, I would show people that everyone's different.

basically a fake smile.

Wonder part 8

1. Explain August's fear of school retreat/camp were they justified? he was scared to try something new because he would have been away from his parents.

2. compare Eddie and Julian. how are they similar/different. how do their interaction with august reveal their character?
eddie overreacts when he meets Auggie and Julian just asked questions but in an overreacting way. eddie screamed when he met Auggie.

3. explain how august relationship with his classmates has changed since he first started going to Beecher prep. give an explanation?
After the camp situation, everyone was proud of Auggie for standing up to the bullies. but when Auggie first started most people would have called him a "freak, monster" etc.

4. describe how August has shown greatness during his year at Beecher prep? do you think he deserves a medal? why?
in my opinion, he has shown greatness, Auggie definitely deserves a medal because when all of the kids were bullying him he raised his head and ignored them and that is a hard thing to do.

5. compare the character of Auggie at the beginning of the book and in the and in the final chapters how was he changed and what was contributed to his change?
in the beginning, Auggie was scared to do most things without his helmet. At the end of the story, Auggie was doing a lot of things without his helmet. he wasn't as scared because he knew most of the students and they treated him nice apart from the odd ones out.

6. describe your favourite character in the story. explain their impact on the story and why you picked them?
My favourite character would most probably be Via because she has been very strong when Auggie went to surgery and when their mum and dad gave Auggie all the attention Via. Miranda and VIa were very close and they were like sisters.

7.what do you think auggies future holds? what do you think will happen in his life? 
I think in his future he will have a good future. I think he will overcome what people think of him. in his life I think Jack will stay his friends.

I have learnt a little about Resilience. I didn't really know much about resilience because my old teachers didn't really touch on it.

it was difficult to understand information about "who moved my cheese" because like the to mice went away together and one of the people ditched his friend. 

the video who moved my cheese is about mice and people  who went to a cheese station (a place full of cheese) the cheese didsapeared and one of the people thought that someone stole the cheese but they ate it all.
